Aksuona Clutch Bags now at Farfallina


The quest for the ‘perfect’ handbag, which is of course every woman’s favourite accessory, is never-ending. After all, a handbag defines a woman’s personal style and individuality. It was this quest that gave birth to Aksuona Brand.

Aksuona is a British label created in May 2007 by Natasha Anouska Kapur – owner, designer, and true handbag aficionado! Natasha’s desire for something more exciting and unique than mass produced handbags saw her begin designing and creating her own collection of handbags. Her vision was that of artfully handcrafted evening bags that were both simple and stylish, complemented with a touch of vintage glamour. Aksuona represents the marriage of the quality and sophistication one would expect of a designer label, with a uniqueness and inspiration that creates true individual style. The result...affordable luxury...a range of bags perfectly suited for the modern fashionista with an eye for the most exact attention to detail.

Seductive materials sourced from all over the world; hand-woven leathers, raw silks, chic printed linings and Swarovski crystal embellishments are examples of what you will find in an Aksuona Handbag. Each handbag is created by the most highly skilled craftsmen and special attention is paid to the intricate hand-finished details using traditional Indian techniques.

Aksuona handbags can already be found in many boutiques and can be bought online here at Farfallina.net

Jessica Kagan Cushman


"Message in a Bangle"

Whimsical, fun and rather "Expressive" is what can best describe Jessica Kagan Cushman bangles.

Daughter of renowned furniture designer Vladimir Kagan and needlework queen Erica Wilson design runs in her veins, so it seems only natural that Jessica Cushman's work is totally unique and fresh. Having learned scrimshaw from her father, Jessica has taken the artform to a new (and slightly un-orthodox) level - creating bracelets that lie somewhere between a tattoo and a bumper sticker. Jessica takes quotes and phrases, from movies, literature and in some cases, New York graffiti and transcribes them via scrimshaw onto resin bracelets - combing a venerable traditional craft with wry, modern wit.

Today Jessica Cushman's bangles, can be found at the most exclusive stores and are frequent in the pages of all the major magazines, such as Instyle, W, Elle, Nylon.

Pick your favourite phrases from our selection of Jessica Kagan Cushman bangles here at Farfallina.net and you can say once again that you've seen it here First!

Hervé Van der Straeten - Simply Bold

Hervé Van der Straeten’s designs have a beautiful authority that is menacing and majestic at the same time. Painstakingly crafted, their pristine, sculpted forms, rich textures, and optical tricks possess a perplexing, mischievous elegance.

“They say that for a sculpture to be good, it needs to have seven perfect angles. With my designs, there are interesting and unexpected visual intrigues from every direction,” says Van der Straeten, who studied sculpture and painting before launching into jewelry design for fashion icons such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Yves Saint Laurent and Christian Lacroix.

Eloquently timeless and expertly crafted, each Van der Straeten design is produced in Paris at his private workshops, often the result of over several hundred hours of expert artisan labor.

Bold, Sophisticated, Elegant...each Van Der Straeten piece is unique!
